Temporary Blog Hiccup - Virtual Assistant to the Rescue
As you may have noticed, there have been a few changes here at the BVAS Connection recently. Last week I had made the recommended update from Wordpress for this blog, then all of the sudden, *poof*, my blog was gone…. Well, almost gone. My header was there, but the rest of the blog disappeared behind some ugly error message.
So I spent a couple days trying to see if I can fix it myself with my amateur web skills, but to no avail. I realized this was a job for someone that had more advanced skills in this web design stuff. So I called upon some of networking groups to see if anyone knew the solution to my problem. Thank goodness for networking!
Thanks to another wonderful Virtual Assistant, Cyndi Papia of Office To-Go, I got my blog back! Out of the kindness of her heart, she looked over my code and then discovered that it was the theme I was using that was causing the problem since the update. We now have the blog up and running with a theme that I’ll keep temporarily until I have my new customized design ready.
This goes to show me two lessons:
- I am not an expert in EVERYTHING and so to save me time and anguish, I should leave some things to the real experts. (this is what Virtual Assistants are for!)
- Online networking groups are extremely valuable, especially when you need help with a problem or an answer to a question.
Again, I want to thank Cyndi Papia for helping me out and getting this blog going again. You can check out her website at www.officeto-go.com or her blog at http://officeto-go.com/blog.
